It was nice to see I am not the only one snapping thread.
Great job on the video. I like the pattern - will need to try it out in the local streams. Thanks Cheech.
Nice one Cheech. A thought... Instead of shaving the mask and bagging it why don't you just cut a suitable clump directly off the skin, preen it to get the guard hair to underfur ratio you want and spin that in the dubbing loup. I do all my fur collars like this so I can control fiber length and density - IMHO think that having the naturally tapered guard hairs radiating out from the fly looks/moves better than radom ends of hair sticking out all over the place. I tie the bodies on all my Copper Johns the way you do on this fly - so much smoother!
Hank Vana2 that’s always an option too. The tapers on a hare’s mask are so slight, that it seems to move the same if you do it this way.
It's like watching Sasquatch tying flies
That’s a really nice looking fly but is it going to fall apart on the first fish with the way the wire is just glued on?
This method is extremely durable.
awesome fly Cheech!
